PHGP Album Update

We have an update for you about the new Pinhead Gunpowder 7".  Over at VinylCollective.com they have posted the album cover which you can see at the bottom of this post.  Click here for a bigger picture of it.  It also seems that the album is self titled  Below is what was posted on VinylCollective.com:

"Our friends at Recess should be picking up this week from his pressing plant a brand new Pinhead Gunpowder 7″ and a brand new Banana’s LP. Todd will also be picking up the repress of “Boogada Boogada Boogada”. So if the plant actually delivers all of these records, next week, we should be seeing a lot of great records.

So get on this while you can. The Pinhead 7″ is out of an edition of 500, todd was hoping for blue vinyl, but since the plant has been so backed up, he said if there is a color that gets this record pressed sooner, put it on that color so we will find out what it ends up being.

Todd has also been kind enough to give us a test pressing of the Bananas vinyl. Good luck friends."
